About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
Koshary is the national dish of Egypt. It is served in virtually every Egyptian restaurant, home, and street corner. Street vendors serve the dish from carts to people eagerly waiting in line to eat this beloved and highly popular dish. An unusual combination, Koshary mixes lentils, macaroni noodles and rice into a single dish and it’s then topped with a spicy tomato sauce that uses a special Middle Eastern spice blend, garbanzo beans, and fried onions. The idea sounds strange…until you taste it. Koshary isn’t Egyptian in origin. It is believed that Koshary originated in India and dates back to the time of British Colonization. The name “Koshary” is actually from the Hindu “khichri”, which refers to a dish of lentils and rice. When the British arrived in Egypt in the late 1800′s they brought this dish with them – it was inexpensive and filling. Happens to be that the Italian community that lived in Egypt at that time adopted the dish and added their favorite food to it – pasta!
